Kyiv Chamber Choir. Kyrylo Stetsenko. Vol.4. Crown of Wedding. Easter Matins.
"Kyrylo Stetsenko – a composer of the highest order and talent, Kyrylo Stetsenko dedicated himself wholeheartedly to Ukrainian culture. In his short life he contributed impressive musical works, imbued with a personal spirituality, which live on even to this day. Stetsenko belongs to a pleiad of notable Ukrainian artists at the beginning of the XX century. Almost contemporaneous was the appearance in the musical life in Ukraine of: O. Koshyts', M. Leontovych, S. Lyudkevych and Y. Yatsynevych. This was a veritable assembly of great talents, which, having developed the creative traditions of Mykola Lysenko, raised the achievements of Ukrainian music to a high degree...

The services "Wedding" and "Easter Matins" of K. Stetsenko are brought together in this recording as a result of a bold and original artistic plan – to re-establish these sacred rituals as a vibrant soulful national drama. This was inspired by the tenor of Ukrainian church ritual traditions, by the brilliant music of the composer and by his innovational attempts to introduce psalmodic traits into his last cycles ("Vespers" and "Requiem"). All this inspired the initiator of this artistic project – M. Hobdych – not only to assemble various works from the Paschal cycle, sometimes developing the available material, but also to blend the interpreted works with a "peopled" sonoral venue..." L. Parhomenko, Doctor of Arts, professor
